"Gongzi Zhao has gone out with that little brother. He will probably be back after a while. Lady, you will be able to see your little brother tonight. "Now, you can go out for a walk. The scenery in this fishing village is quite nice."
"Thank you."
The fishing village was very big. From a distance, Hua Rong could see a large boat docked in front of them. It was twice the size of the King Qin's five-tooth warship. Could this be the Gongzi Zhao's ship?
The surface of the sea was calm. Under the sunset, the fishermen had formed nets to catch the fish and were rowing the boats back. A group of seabirds flew over from afar with white wings. It was a completely peaceful world.
Hua Rong stepped on the white sand, her heart was at a loss, even if she escaped she would still be able to live, but, what should she do in the future? Where could she go?
The last of the slanting rays sank into the sea.
A boat docked, and several men alighted. One of them was a tall and sturdy young man with a calm face and an air of self-confidence. He strode over from the beach.
The night had already become hazy. There were children playing outside, and fishermen chatting idly. There were shadows everywhere. Inadvertently, he suddenly saw a girl walking towards him from the beach in front of him. It was as if she was surrounded by light, and under the dim light of the night, he could see her with a single glance.
How could there be such a person in this little fishing village?
With a thought, he heard the youth beside him cheer as he walked up to him and said loudly, "Big sister, big sister …"
Hua Rong held onto the youth's hand, and said with pleasant surprise: "Are you alright?"
"It's nothing, sister. It's the Gongzi Zhao who saved us."
Hua Rong immediately bowed: "Thank you for saving my life."
"No need to be so polite, my lady. It was one of our boats that happened to pass by, and I was not on it at the time. "However, we should thank you all. We should thank your brother so that we can find out more about the pirates …"
This young master of a noble family, what was she trying to find out about the pirates for? Did they have something stolen too? Hua Rong suddenly remembered the scene of the King Qin robbing the "Flowerstone class" twice, and immediately became alert. Could it be that these were all people sent to Flowerstone by the traitor Cai Jing?
While they were talking, everyone had already returned to the fishermen's home. The old fisherman was an extremely respected person in the fishing village, and he was exceptionally respectful to this Gongzi Zhao. His family had long placed a table full of dishes and wine, and then left.
Gongzi Zhao was very straightforward as he invited Hua Rong and Hua Rong to sit together. Under the light of the lamp, he saw that the Jing Chai cloth skirt was a lady with bright eyes, white teeth, and a demure demeanor. He had long heard from Yue Pengju that she had been robbed by those pirates and had escaped during the night of his wedding. Even though he was buried in a sea of anger, he would rather die than submit. A woman with such courage and insight, as well as such a talented appearance, could not help but have a whole new level of respect for his.
He asked, "Lady, where are you going next?"
Hua Rong had always been thinking about this question, and didn't know where she should go. She only told the truth, "Originally, I wanted to go out to sea to seek refuge with my friends and relatives.
"Where is the girl's hometown?"
"About 100 miles from Beijing."
"Then go home. We can also take you along the way this time. "
His family and friends had already died, and his family property had been copied. If he went back, it would be the fate of being a servant.
The youth suddenly said, "Elder sister, come with me to our old home."
She had never expected that the young man would make such a suggestion, but seeing how he acted like a young adult, the depressed feelings she originally had were washed away quite a bit. She seriously thought for a moment before saying, "Thank you."
"Elder sister, then let's say we go together?"
"Alright, I'll send you back first before I make any plans."
The Gongzi Zhao saw that Hua Rong did not plan to return to the capital, and that she had his own thoughts. However, they were, after all, a girl and a child, and if they met any thieves on the way, the consequences would be dire.
Although Hua Rong felt that he had saved her, she still couldn't help but ask when she thought of "Flowerstone": "Gongzi Zhao, are the goods sent to the capital?"
"No. We're just on the way. "
Hua Rong heaved a sigh of relief, "Oh, I had thought that you guys were here to help Cai Zhai deliver the flower stone class, luckily you guys aren't."
Gongzi Zhao saw that her tone did not hide anything. He had never seen such a frank stranger in his life.
"Cai Jing and the rest of the six thieves traversing the world, bringing calamity and calamity to the masses, travelling by sea to transport strange flowers and trees, other than them, no one else. That's why I dared to ask, if there were any offenses, please forgive me."
"Everyone in the world hates the Six Thieves. We are all very pleased to hear that Hua Shi Ge has been robbed. "To be honest, we subdued a group of pirates. Originally, we wanted to take advantage of the situation and chase after the bandit leader and King Qin, but we found out that a flower stone platform was about to pass by. We let the King Qin stop us first …"
Hua Rong shuddered at the thought of the King Qin. She had finally escaped his devil palms and was no longer willing to meet him.
"Miss, the one who robbed you was the King Qin, right? Once this period of time has passed, I will definitely exterminate the King Qin and help you all vent your anger … "
Hearing his tone, Hua Rong did not know who he was. She could only speak plainly, but she had a breathtaking aura, like a general holding a heavy soldier.
Her heart was moved as she suddenly asked: "The ones who defeated the King Qin last time were you?"
"Exactly."
She heaved a sigh of relief, but thinking that King Qin would not give up, and had not escaped far, she immediately bowed. "Gongzi Zhao, I have a presumptuous request …"
"Don't worry about it, miss."
"Please do your best to hide the news of my rescue. I'm afraid that the King Qin might catch up …"
Gongzi Zhao looked at her. When she spoke like this, his voice couldn't help but tremble a little. He immediately said: "Miss, don't worry. With me here, if King Qin dares to come again, I'll definitely make sure he won't be able to return."
"Thank you, Young Master."
Gongzi Zhao suddenly said: "Miss, you don't have to worry, three days later, I will get someone to send you on your way."
Hua Rong was very uneasy: "This, won't it be too much trouble for you?"
"It's fine, it's on the way anyway. I'll take you guys out to sea first, and when you get ashore, I'll send someone to take you guys home. "
It was inconvenient for her to refuse, and she could not refuse either. Along the way, they had been in a state of chaos, and since the two of them could not survive, she could only owe this strange young master a debt of gratitude. The two siblings then took their leave, returning to the room the fishermen had arranged for them to rest.
When he returned to his room, Miss Jing Xue had already made up the bed. When she saw Hua Rong coming in, she looked at the red wedding dress at the side and laughed: "Miss, these clothes are really pretty."
Only now did Hua Rong realize that the clothes were still in the corner and had already dried up. This red colour was originally beautiful, but when she saw it, she was extremely afraid and could only forcefully smile in response. The passionate Jing Xue made her not want to talk, so she closed the door and went out.
Only then did Hua Rong pick up the wedding dress. The wedding dress was heavy, because there were many pearls attached to them. This was sewn up by the King Qin, they said to make the gown look the most beautiful.
She was initially worried that she would not get entangled along the way, but she was unable to tell the Gongzi Zhao who saved her that she should not get anything more than she needed. Now that she saw the wedding dress, she was overjoyed.
From morning until dusk, the King Qin would not give up. He continued to fish in the ocean, insisting on seeing everyone's corpses.
The pirates saw him do such a foolish thing, but seeing how fierce he was, they dared not disobey him, so they pretended to do their best to help him. In the evening, the King Qin suddenly became clear-headed. "Go to the fishing villages along the way and search for them. Maybe the fishing boats will rescue them …"
The pirates looked at each other in dismay. Was there no such thing as a coincidence in this world?
Just then, a boat that was in charge of providing information rushed back, the leader on the boat was called Ling Xin, King Qin saw him and immediately urged: "How is it? Have any ships passed by recently? "
"Reporting to the king, we've found out that a large merchant ship passed by here today. However, it has long since left …"
King Qin was happy: "If a boat were to pass by, maybe it would save them. Hurry up and find out more. If they saved him, not only would I not rob them, I would even send some treasures to thank them. Where is that? This old man will personally go ask for them … "
"Reporting to my King, this ship is not a good place to gather information. A preliminary estimate is that it's the power that defeated us last time, and the one leading is called 'Gongzi Zhao'. It's very mysterious, and we don't know where it came from …"
"Damn, could it be the court's dog officials?"
Ling thought to himself, "Please be careful, my King, and don't fall for the dog officials' evil schemes."
King Qin immediately said: "For the time being, don't let them meet face to face, and don't leak news, continue to send people to secretly probe for information. Report Hua Rong's whereabouts to me immediately, or else, don't alert the enemy."
"Yes."
The moment the boat went out, King Qin suddenly perked up, as if he had already confirmed that Hua Rong was still alive.
A pirate offered the flagon to her. He took a big gulp and tossed the flagon back to her, muttering to himself, "Little girl, if you want to live, I'll spare you. If you die, hmph …"
As they were talking, a young leader named Sun Xiaoxiao arrived on a boat. "My lord, we have just received news that another mysterious merchant ship is docking. It must be another escort of Hua Shi Gang …"
Flowerstone was found all over the country. This time, it was a huge rock weighing tens of tons. It must be transported by sea. King Qin did not care about what was on the boat at all. He waved his hand and said, "Leave it for now, gather people to deal with that Gongzi Zhao thing …"
Sun Xiaoxiao was a little unconvinced. The pirates had been killed last time, so why would they fight the Gongzi Zhao head on? Wasn't it a good thing to gather our forces to get another vote? Therefore, he warned them: "Great King, it has been a long time since we have harvested anything, there is no point in fighting Gongzi Zhao. We might as well go and do some dirty business …"
"Cut the crap, your silver and gold should be yours. I, your father, will not be able to treat any of you like this." We'll deal with the Gongzi Zhao first … "
"Your Majesty, there is no news that indicates that Madam is at Gongzi Zhao's place …"
King Qin was speechless, it was just a guess, and indeed, how could Hua Rong be so coincidentally saved by some Gongzi Zhao?
Sun Xiao Hui hesitated and immediately added, "Our strength is not as good as the Gongzi Zhao's, there is no need for us to go all out. "Besides, if Ling wants to find Madam's whereabouts, it won't be too late for us to make a move …"
King Qin thought this made sense, so he agreed.
